WASHINGTON, August Assistant
Secretary Maynard has rendered decision

of the collector OF T., paso, Tex, assessing
at the raty OF sryyuty-Gyc cents pet pound
ON certain leaf tobacco imported from
Mexico. OF which dtty-niuc out OF the loo
leaves were OF the requisite SIZE aud tue
ness for use ~ wrappers, and loo Of which
leaves Wei ghed less than pound. The
detcrm luatiou OF the points involved de
ponds principally upon the unit to be
adopted in aScerJaiuing whether IS per
cent OF the commodity Is of the weight
and quality which renders il liable to the
rate OF duty imposed. In his decision
Judge iiayugd says.
The subject of the tax is leaf tobacco,
not bales or hands OF packages OF
leaf tobacco, and the liability 70 duty can
not be made 10 depend upon the form Of
the package m which the Importation Is
made Every leaf, - per cent. OF which Is
suitable for wrappers and the weight OF
which Is such that more than loo leaves
would be required to weigh a pound, Is
declared to be liable to the high rate OF
duty. This view Is further strengthened
by the provision in the paragraph that IN

accident. went to the hospital to get it
cured. stayed there one year. Two open
sores refused to heal, and l suffered great
pain. l was very lame, and could walk
only with the aid of crutch and cane.
There was no feeling in the shin bone. and
l was told that it was dead, and would
have to be removed or cut off.
Last September l consulted DR.. Mac
Lehman, on his arrival in Butte. He made
a thorough examination, and saN that he
could cure it without cutting, and that life
and feeling would return to the bone; that
the sores would heal and the pain and
lameness disappear. He gaveme q written

would return my money. Well, put my

Debate ON Irish Land Bill,

LONDON, April 21.-In the House of
Lords to-day Earl Cadigan moved the sec-
ond reading of the Land bill. Baron Den
man moved the rejection of the bill, which
he said was likely to bury landlord and
tenant in litigation. Earl Spencer said he
hoped Lord Denman would not press a
division on his motion. Theland question
must be settled before Ireland
would become peaceful. Interference with
rents was unavoidable. The action of
courts justified interference on behalf OF
tenants to lower judicial rents which were
too high in view OF falling prices. He con-
demned the rate of remission which he said
would lead to disputes and impose an ad-
ditional burden OIL districts now almost
bankrupt. He also condemned the powers
given to country courts in cases of bank
ruptcy claims. The bill would demoralize
the Irish people.
Lord Ashbourne said that the bill, if
passed, would prove great check to evic-
tions. The details OF the bill he said, could
be easily amended in committee.

A Resurvey Ordered of tho Whole Tract
Of 500, 900 Acres.
WASHINGTON, April 21.-Upon the recon-
mendation Of the surveyor general of
New Mexico, Commissioner Sparks. of the
General Land Office has ordered that the
tract known as Las Vegas Grant" in New
MEXICO be eresurveyed. The surveyor general
in his report upon which the order of re-
surveying was made Gays: 1.-THE present sur
vey embraces nearly half a million acres of
land and is manifestly indefensible;" that
the papers show a grant for agricultural
purposes Of numerous specified allotments
10000 acres oflands amounting to perhaps
the particular acres of which several tracts
can only be determined by q survey; that
the remainder Of the land, including in out
boundaries specified wasevidently intended
for pasturage and the grant provides that
these lands and their waters shall be free
to all that it was the CUSTOM of the
Mexican Government to grant in fee
pasture land to the extent of nearly half
million acres. 1t is claimed in this case
Tor those and other reasons, the land
should be resurveyed and q patent issued
for the land actually granted for agricul-
tural purposes, thus settling the yexed ques-
ton OF title and restoring to the public
domain and actual settlement q large body
of desirable land. LasVegas, is one of the
important towns of the Territory of New
Mexico and is located on this tract.

Homo Life in the Country.

Too many of our farmers homes are merely
SO In names They are not homes-only
places to stay. Do not think we are insinua-
ting that you must rush right off and spend
$1,000 in buying new furniture, carpets and
an organ Not at ALL Ono of the shomey-
est" places we ever saw was one that was en-
tirely innocent of any extravaganza in that
line Three hundred dollars would have
covered the cost of all the furniture in the
house; but it was place we always enjoyed
visiting. The head of the family was always
jolly and ready to take hand in the game,
and his nine children, always hearty and full
of fun, did not care to be out in the evenings
The girls did sewing and knitting as they
grew old enough, and the boys were often
found making something;;" but no eveLirg
passed that some one did not have something
to read to the others-an anecdote or story
something either to amuse or instruct.
But tho main secret of their happiness, if it
was a secret, lay in the fact that worrying
and fretting were banished. One growler or
fretter will spoil a whole family. Fathers,
mothers, don't allow a fault finding spirit to
spoil the pleasure Of your family circle. Don't
indulge in it yourselves. Have as cozy and
comfortable home as you can afford, but
don't mourn over what you have not. Rather
rejoice in what you have and be thankful

CHICAGO, April 19.-After being out five
hours and ten minutes, one hour OF which

Schwartz and Watt, Rock Island murder
trial, were ready with a verdict. Before

the court room had filled with spectators,
many ladies being present. A death.
like silence prevailed. When the Judge,
taking the verdict, read aloud the words
pronouncing Watt and Schwartz guilty OF
murder and sentencing them to imprison-

the prisoners without look or action OF
